Question

Look at the Parthenon. Choose the answer that is NOT correct about this building:

A.      The building surface has subversive texture.

B.      The facade is symmetrically balanced.

C.      The proportions of the facade are based on the Golden Section.

D.     The building is comprised of geometric form.

E.      Unity is created by the repetition of columns across the facade.

Answer 1

'A' is the correct answer. It was not unusual for Greek temples to be made of marble, so there was nothing unexpected or revolutionary about its surface texture.
